Re-innovation of split lateral gastrocnemius muscle flap for complicated proximal tibia open fracture: Case report.

Introduction And Importance: Maintaining mobility and hence the productivity of individuals depends on the preservation of lower limb integrity. Increasing violence, mainly triggered by weapons, inversely impacts limb functionality, and the resulting wounds require proper care.

Case Presentation: A 47-year-old African man without any previous medical conditions experienced an injury to his right leg from a high-speed accident, resulting in an open fracture in the upper third of the tibia with missing tissue.

Case report of unique presentation of spontaneous calf hematoma.

Introduction And Importance: The presentation of spontaneous hematomas remains different between all affected populations, but advanced age and use of anticoagulants are common risk factors in the majority. The progression of the hematoma may require some time to be detected; however, it can prove fatal if it reaches a significant size. A spontaneous calf hematoma can be mistakenly diagnosed as deep vein thrombosis, and the management of both conditions is varying.

Modified intermittent low negative pressure wound therapy for complex injuries: A case series.

Introduction And Importance: Combat wounds can be difficult to manage and can lead to disfigurement and infection. The closure of these wounds is crucial, as delayed closure also increases the risk of further complications. Military medicine has introduced negative pressure wound therapy, which modulates wounds perfectly through the microscopic and macroscopic configurations of the wound environment.
